Model 3096RC T-DAC Getting Started Guide
3 • Configuring the T-DAC for operation
Introduction
This chapter contains the following procedures that describe configuring the Model 3096RC T-DAC for
operation:
•
“Configuration prerequisites”
—lists the items you need to have on hand before configuring the T-DAC.
•
“Initial configuration through the RS-232 control port”
on page 37—describes how to define the 3096RC’s
LAN IP address and netmask parameters.
•
“Using a browser to complete Model 3096RC configuration”
on page 41—describes how to define the
remaining basic configuration parameters in order to bring your T_DAC on-line. The steps are:
-
Defining static connections with DS0 mapping (see page 48)C
-
Configuring the system clocking parameters (see page 46)
-
Defining the IP default gateway (see page 44)
-
Defining E1 WAN link parameters (see
“Configuring line settings and signaling for E1”
on page 58) or
T1 WAN link parameters (see
“Configuring line settings and signaling for T1”
on page 61)
•
“Saving your configuration”
on page 64—describes how to save your configuration settings.
•
“Backing up your configuration parameters”
on page 64—describes how save your configuration parame-
ters to a file
•
“Completing the installation”
on page 67—describes how to verify that your 3096RC T-DAC is fully
operational.
Configuration prerequisites
You will need the following to configure the 3096RC T-DAC:
•
A PC equipped with the following:
-
RS-232/V.24 serial port
-
VT-100 terminal program, e.g., HyperTerminal
-
Ethernet port
-
Web browser (e.g., Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer)
•
You will need the following information to configure the Model 3096RC:
-
The IP address and subnet mask for the 3096RC’s Ethernet port
-
The IP address of the default gateway
-
The 3096RC G.SHDSL port number to which each customer premises equipment (CPE) G.SHDSL
modem will be connecting.
-
A mnemonic naming convention scheme for your G.SHDSL circuit IDs (optional).
-
The data rate at which each CPE G.SHDSL will be operating
-
The final destination port of the CPE's G.SHDSL modem connection (WAN time slots or another
G.SHDSL port, for example,).
